Wrestling superstar HULK HOGAN is optimistic his son NICK will be able to put his troubles behind him when the truth about his summer (07) car crash and subsequent driving ban surfaces.

Nick Bollea, 17, had his driving licence suspended for one year last month (Nov07) after Florida officials deemed him a dangerous driver following an August (07) accident that left his friend John Graziano critically injured and needing nursing care for the rest of his life.

Bollea has been charged with reckless driving involving serious bodily injury. The teenager will be tried as an adult. And Hogan is keen for his son’s day in court to arrive, so the facts about the crash can finally emerge.

He tells U.S. TV show Access Hollywood, "We’re going to be very happy when the truth really comes out of what really happened, instead of all the speculation." Hogan is also hopeful his wife Linda, who recently filed for divorce, will consider a reconciliation in the near future. He says, "There’s always a chance. You can never say never. "I love my family, and I love my wife to death, and I just don’t know what tomorrow’s going to bring. I’m just trying to stay positive and stay focused and stay busy."
